5th Annual Cardiovascular Risk Assessment Summit

Title5th Annual Cardiovascular Risk Assessment Summit

AbstractThis is the first in a new category of entries in
the journal; a second one follows it. This category
will be a series of reports describing presentations
given at scientific conferences. These reports will enable those who were not present to get a good idea of the meeting’s content and provide attendees with a concise summary for future reference.
This report addresses the Center for Business
Intelligence’s 5th Annual Cardiovascular Risk
Assessment Summit, held in Alexandria, Virginia,
on January 26–27, 2011. The authors,
Drs Larry Satin and David Gutstein, were the
meeting’s cochairs.
Two workshops were presented on the morning
of day 1. The main conference sessions
then commenced in the afternoon (chaired by
Dr Satin) and continued throughout day 2
(chaired by Dr Gutstein).
In a couple of places, the authors have made
comments that augment the report of the material
presented by speakers: these comments
are clearly identified in the text.
